Icicle Branches Smelling of Milk and Honey!

We live in Arizona, so we don’t get icicle branches often, but is it okay if mine smell like milk and honey??

We do get icicle branches since we live in the mountains of Arizona, I’ve just never smelled them!!

Since we don’t have them yet I decided to make them.

They may have Epson salt in “no smell,” but all I could find was smelly. I thought milk and honey would be a “quiet” smell.

I was wrong!

Anyway, here are the manzanita branches I cut from the empty lot next door. On the right, I removed the leaves. I started picking them off, but in the end just grabbed a handful and pulled.

Next time I’ll put gloves on!

Ouch!

I used the plastic bin to spray the glue on the branches. This contained the spray somewhat. Do work outside! Then I quickly poured over the Epson salt and shook on the glitter. I kept spraying the pouring on the salt and glitter. I used a plastic cup to gather up the mixture in the bottom of the bin to pour on.

Actually I pretty much “dump” on the salt and glitter.

Spray, dump, repeat!

Until I was happy with the results. Very happy 😀

This is the final icicle branches. Pretty cool and cold looking…

with the smell of milk and honey!

Tip: I have kept the big blue plastic tub and store the branches inside. I’ve used the icicle branches every year.

P.S. If you’re reading this you made it through the whole post. You made my day! Let’s be the best of friends. 😊

Ooohh! So pretty! I think they would look good just about anywhere! As accents in your 12 month wreath, in clumps between the Christmas tree branches, and tied with a red or white bow as part of your centerpiece or mantle decor! I would use them in some of my turquoise beachy bottles, right down the center of my dining room table! Thank you Jeanette! Another great decorating solution 🙂
